Polycaprolactone (PCL) polyols can be used to enhance coatings that feature other polymer chemistries in both 1K and 2K coatings. This article explores the performance benefits achieved when low-molecular-weight PCL tri- and tetra-functional polyols are blended with other hydroxyl-functional polymers in 2K coatings.
Polycaprolactone polyols should preferably be used as resin modifiers in formulations that are needed to be taken to the next level. They can be used in formulations that need a twist in the right direction to meet VOC regulations and tough technical demands.
